When first deciding to have a Halo Themed Wedding, one of the few ways we chose to reinforce the theme was by having our wedding party sport our spartan colors and emblems. A few weeks ago evilcharismatic and I tried making custom necklaces for all the bridesmaids.

Our craft store ingredients were:

• Hot Pink & White Fimo
• Jump rings (small)
• Hot pink connector gems
• Heart toggle clasps
• Silver necklace chains

It was our very first time at making jewelry and we were rather proud of what we accomplished. Especially since our jewelry making tools consisted of nothing more than a push pin and pliers. Sadly though, after putting it all together, I realized I didn’t like how the clay pendant and silver chain looked together.

That’s when I started looking for custom pendant makers on Etsy. It wasn’t long before I found an amazing shop that sold custom soldered pendants. Becky Lanktree, from ArtUnderGlass.etsy.com was kind enough to make the pendants for my bridal party. I asked that one side have my Halo Emblem while the other contained our wedding date and logo. They arrived in the mail today and look amazing!

After several hours of jewelry making trial and error, PsychoVandal was eventually able to assemble all the necklaces. I can’t wait to show my bridesmaids.
